Users
The list of Users corresponds to the LDAP/AD Group that is selected as well as what
filter settings are set in the Settings area (Show TerraBlock or LDAP users).
After a group(s) has been selected, a Users list will populate (the only list of LDAP
users is group Class105 in the example above). The user’s status may be reviewed.
Any new LDAP/AD user will be missing from the TerraBlock. The same User(s) may
be located on both servers. Changes may have to be applied to the TerraBlock user
if volumes and or permissions have changed for the user (see above). A single click
of the user in the User list will generate a “pop up” dialog box that will list the
changes to be applied.
Sync Selected
A User can be selected in the User list and depending on the status the action
performed will differ upon selecting the ‘Sync Selected’ button. Sync is intended to
match the TerraBlock and LDAP/AD users exactly. Existing TerraBlock users may
be deleted. Expected action:
1. Missing in TerraBlock Status – The highlighted user(s) will be created on the
TerraBlock server, pulling from the LDAP/AD server. Sync Selected will
perform this action only for the highlighted user(s).
2. Missing in LDAP Status – The highlighted user(s) will be deleted from the
TerraBlock server when using Sync Selected.
3. Changes: +1 -3 Status – This indicates the user(s) exists on both the
TerraBlock and LDAP server, but the volume assignment or permissions have
changed. Single click the user to obtain Change action.
Only users displayed in the User list will be synchronized. TerraBlock and
LDAP users can be filtered under Settings.
User passwords for the LDAP/AD user that has been synchronized are
not applied to the newly created TerraBlock user. The user will be
prompted to set a password when logging in with the TerraBlock
Manager for the first time if using the TerraBlock User/Password
feature.
Sync All
Selecting the ‘Sync all’ button will synchronize all users between the TerraBlock and
LDAP/AD servers at one time. This option is recommended during initial setup of the
TerraBlock to move or pull current LDAP/AD users to the TerraBlock server. User
passwords will need to be created when logging in to the TerraBlock Manager for the
first time if using the TerraBlock User/Password feature. Volumes and permission
can be added or changed afterwards.
Choose to display only LDAP Users under Settings and selecting ‘Sync all’ will
add all LDAP/AD users to the TerraBlock leaving any existing TerraBlock user
untouched. If a TerraBlock user is displayed and ‘Missing in LDAP’, that user
will be deleted with ‘Sync all’.
